Twenty-three cases were converted to laparotomy. We compared patient characteristics, indications for hysterectomy, operation time, estimated blood loss, adhesion, uterine weight and postoperative complications between failed and successful groups. <i>Results:<\/i> The rate of conversion to laparotomy was 8%. There were no differences in patient characteristics between the two groups. Independent risk factors for conversion were adhesion and uterine weight. The most common cause of the conversion to laparotomy was adhesions (p = 0.000). Uterine weight was found to be heavier in the failed group (331.5 \u00b1 157.1 vs. 270.3 \u00b1 132.5 g, p = 0.038). Estimated blood loss was greater in the failed group (455.6 \u00b1 143.7 vs. 304.2 \u00b1 45.8 ml, p = 0.047). Bladder injury occurred in the failed group more frequently than in the successful group (p = 0.024). <i>Conclusion:<\/i> An awareness of risk factors for conversion is important for better patient selection for TLH. Indirect measurement of uterine weight by sonography and detailed history taking is helpful in determining the appropriate hysterectomy route.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000317520","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,26]],"date-time":"2011-04-26T06:56:19Z","timestamp":1303800979000},"page":"193-197","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Factors Determining Conversion to Laparotomy in Patients Undergoing Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"71","author":[{"given":"Sung-Ho","family":"Park","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hye-Yon","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hong-Bae","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2801%2901723-9"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089%2Fgyn.1989.5.213"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0301-2115%2897%2900081-X"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fbmj.37984.623889.F6"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0039-6109%2805%2970238-3"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fhumrep%2F13.4.867"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2896%2900390-0"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2898%2900566-3"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1471-0528.1997.tb11539.x"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fhumrep%2F14.12.2996"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1479-828X.1999.tb03380.x"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fbmj.330.7506.1478"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0002-9378%2897%2980023-3"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1479-828X.2004.00170.x"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2899%2900406-8"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2898%2900209-9"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006%2Fgyno.1999.5511"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.jmig.2005.05.015"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00268-005-7778-0"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1074-3804%2805%2960146-6"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1447-0756.2007.00577.x"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0029-7844%2894%2900352-E"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fhumrep%2Fdel336"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1074-3804%2805%2960413-6"},{"key":"ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1074-3804%2805%2960119-3"},{"key":"ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1074-3804%2805%2960254-X"},{"key":"ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1471-0528.2002.01225.x"},{"key":"ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.obstetgynecol.2003.08.018"}],"container-title":["Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/317520","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/317520","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T19:27:03Z","timestamp":1745436423000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000317520"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,15]]},"references-count":28,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,26]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000317520","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0378-7346","1423-002X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0378-7346","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-002X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,15]]}}}
